Bloomsday is on its way to Worcester

Attention all lit-marathoners in the New England states:

The Worcester County Poetry Association has scheduled  their twentieth "Bloomsday Ramble," Tuesday, June 16.

The Bloomsday Ramble is a marathon reading of (sections of) James Joyce's Ulysses. The Ramble makes a number of stops around downtown Worcester, running from 8:00 AM to about 10:00 PM. Come and go as you please.

I've blogged about this before. It's a small, low-key marathon—everyone reads, everyone is friendly, everyone has fun.

Bring a copy of Ulyssess, if possible, and a lawn chair or blanket.
